    So, I know I'm doing something wrong, but any ideas why I can't decrease the height of the table? I would like to have each row &quot;tightened&quot; up a bit, but can't seem to make the rows go closer together, no matter what I try. I know I must be an idiot for not knowing this, but I can't...
